Sports Night: Sac State AD vows more sting

The former Hornets football coach was hired last week as interim athletic director, but he is the best man for the job. Before retiring five years ago, the extroverted Northern California native received high marks as AD of Sierra College.

The 49ers could hire Seahawks offensive-line coach Tom Cable immediately because of Seattle’s loss on Saturday. But it was Kyle Shanahan’s Falcons unit that impressed the most. Atlanta’s victory means the offensive coordinator can’t be hired yet. New England’s postseason journey, which obviously includes offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, continues to the AFC title game.
